Spendor SP100 Question

I have a new pair of Spendor Sp100's. These speakers allow for tri-wiring. Is that the way to go ? I currently single wire with Audience AU24 cables and attach to the woofer binding post. Is tri-wiring better and what type cables are the best for this setup ? Are there any sp100 users out there and what is your favorite amp with this speaker ?

The AU 24 jumpers are not cheap but do work well, and with their new style bananna's are easy to use, don't bother with bi, or tri wiring on this speaker.

I originally had the speaker wires connected to the midrange posts. Seeing Djohn's response, I switched to the woofer connection and voila, the bass is more pronounced AND the highs are even clearer. I find it hard to believe the difference is that great. I used a CD (Ron Carter, The Bass & I) that I always use when I've tweaked the system and want to check the effect. If you're not familiar with it, the CD has very good, clean bass, excellent imaging, and best of all, the percussion is fabulous. JimL

Ok> I Love the audiogon site!

What speaker (the SP 100? or the Apogee Centaurus slant 8, the AR9...the ADS 1290,s the KEF 105.4) I have owned these all! I have biamped etc.

Which is the choice for you for acoustic music, classical, jazz or folk BUT IF IT IS acoustically recorded, which speaker says the truth?

I am building my own subwoofers...

Go figure. But I am not a scientist or an acoustician...
HELP!

Whats your view of the SP 100 Spendors?
